Upgrading KHG Shields to MkXIII

Question for people more knowledgeable than I...

I upgraded my KHG shield to Mk XIII just to see what the improvement would be. And from the numbers, it didn't change a bit in any respect from the Mk XII spec. Has anyone else who tried this gotten any different result?

Thanks!

    I upgraded everything on my Fleet K'tinga from Mk XII to Mk XIII and all of it, other than seeing the numbers get bumped in the descriptions, had absolutely no effect on the actual stats of the ship. I posted something exactly like your post in the general forum and many folks told me that the entire upgrade system is very badly bugged. I suspect we won't see anything for our efforts until Delta Rising is actually released. I hope... Hang in there.

    I'm guessing the stats change isn't programmed into the game yet. The same thing happened to me with Klingon Honor Guard Shields when going from MK XII to MK XIII. Hopefully it will be addressed this week or next week.

    FYI - There are a good chunk of stats in things that don't scale or are bugged and get worse. I've only upgraded stuff confirmed as working. The Lobi Jem'Hadar set and the Fleet shields I'm staying away from upgrading. Consoles in general, except the Nukara one are safe.

    There's just SOOOOO many unupgradeable items I don't see how they will be ready by next Tuesday.

    There's also the Particle-thingie-universal console from Nukara Rep. It technically is upgradable. But previewing it reduces the stats. And when you finally DO upgrade it fully, it's back to the default stats when it was an autoleveling item.

    Ready by next Tuesday?

    Impossible

    There's no chance DR will be ready to go next week, the borked upgrade system is just one component that's not quite there yet. DR is going to release anyway, and we'll have several days of server crashes along with a huge horde of new bugs to contend with. This is how it goes every time.

    You significantly underestimate Cryptic's not-caring-ness.

    It will be dumped out raw and broken, JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER UPDATE THEY'VE EVER DONE.

    Not one season, expansion, or even basic short-term patch has EVER received due review before being dumped onto the playerbase on holodeck. And that's WITH copious amounts of reports and testing on Tribble. Well they stopped listening to Tribble so much they're not even using it anymore. It's all being pumped out as-is.

    Since we're on the KHG shield topic, is there a difference between the T2 Mk XII shield and the the T5 MkXII version ? I still have the Mk XI shield which doesn't exist in the rep system anymore and was wondering if it's equal to the T2 Mk XII shield and/or will it give the set bonus with any of the current T2/5 rep pieces.

    ...Also, If I upgraded the piece thru the upgrade system would it provide the set bonus' with the current T2/5 MkXII pieces and can it be upgraded to T5 MkXII in the rep system ?
